Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
You probably know I'm working for Christians Against Poverty this year. As part of my internship year I've been set the challenge of raising £3,000 for CAP.
I've a while to go yet to reach my target so I'm running the Edinburgh Half Marathon to try and reach my goal.
I'm passionate about the work of CAP as we are a national debt counselling charity who partner with the local church to help people trapped in poverty in the UK. We work to give debt advice and provide groups which equip people to return to work, find freedom from life controlling dependencies and give people the skills to live well on a low income.
Debt and poverty limits people's choices everyday. I've never had to choose between heating my home or buying food or never had to worry about the knock of bailiffs at my door but this is a daily reality for thousands of our clients before they turn to CAP.
I work in a team which creates budgets, gives debt advice and walks the whole journey with thousands of clients towards a debt free future.
Each donation made goes towards us bringing more hope to struggling people everyday.
